Chapter172: bossy

"we fucking did try. Are you even listening to me? We tried looking for you......."

"Don't try giving me the but, because I fucking don't need it. You could have tried harder. You had everything you could use to get in contact with us. You were rich, not like me who was raised by her grandmother in poverty most of her childhood. You really should have tried harder so I don't need the but you were gonna say."I said and she sobbed even harder and the thing is, I didn't even feel bad. She could cry all day, for all I care.

"What is happening Kim?"Andy asked and I looked at her.

"I'm I selfish? You have been my sister like forever Andy and now I want you to be honest with me, when have I been selfish."I asked her and I could see the confusion on her face.

"What are you talking about?"she asked.

"Just answer the damn question."I told her and she looked at me.

"I have never seen you being selfish, why? You think you are selfish? I wouldn't blame you though, it's good to be selfish once in a while though, you have been selfless enough."she said and I looked at Sheebalie.

"Do you know who I think my sister is?"I asked her and she looked at me tears flowing down her cheeks." She is."I said pointing at Andy." She's been with me all my life. We've been through a lot together and she has always been there to keep me going, supporting me and showing me the way when I'm lost. You don't get to know me for like, a year and now you think you know me because you don't. What you see on the surface is known in deeper depths by someone who really know me. I can be selfish but I won't allow you to call me selfish at all."I told Sheebalie.

"So you think friendship is more important than blood? Blood is thicker than water, just so you know."she bit back and I laughed. An ego maniac laughter just so I can mock her.

"And I say, fuck that. Andy may not be blood but she has done a lot more than what any blood related person have done. I really appreciate you offering me a job, I really do. I don't want to look like an ungrateful bitch because I am not. But that cannot be compared to what Andy has done and that really criticise your statement."I told her.

"So.. you're never acknowledge me as your sister?"she asked and I looked at her for a while without saying anything.

"Let the time decide. All I know is that for know, I'm not up to this sisterhood bonding."I calmly said and she wiped her tears on her cheeks.

"What about mom? I want to start bonding with her."she said with a tone indicating that her statement is final but I'm not having that.

"Let everything pass. I don't even know how she would react. What about....."

"I'm not listening to you on this. You just gave me a full lecture on how I need to try harder. Let me have this please. I need it. She doesn't have to know I'm her child, I can pretend to be something I'm not just so I can spend time with her. Please."she said and I looked at her and there was this determination in her eyes. 

"Okay. But don't do anything to hurt her otherwise, do whatever you want."I said and she smiled. I didn't smile back because I don't want to smile at her right now. 

I looked at Andy and Melissa who were looking at me as if they had seen a ghost. I walked towards the stairs and Started walking down."Kim... stop."Melissa called and I stopped to look at her but I saw her coming with Andy.

"What was that about?"Andy asked me and I sighed.

"She's my sister."I said and they opened their eyes wide open.

"What the hell are you saying Kim? Sheebalie is your sister? How the hell is it possible? I mean it could be possible but still...how is it possible?"Andy asked confused.

"It's a long story. You might want to sit down for that. What I need right now is some ice cream, you guys up for it?"I said and continued walking downstairs and they followed me leaving Sheebalie alone upstairs.

We got ice cream from the fridge and we sat down in the sitting room to eat. I answered their curious questions and it was time they became really speechless.

"Damn m... I can't believe this. You mean you also have a brother you don't know? And you were arguing with Sheebalie because she is comparing your situations? I think they are similar in a way but you had it hard. They had the opportunity but you didn't and that's make all the difference."Melissa said and I smiled.

"Exactly my point. She called me selfish and that really had me so angry."I told them and they laughed while I smiled not because they are laughing but because I am feeling how the ice cream is improving my mood. Damn... I feel like I had had it in ages and it was so great.

We talked for a while and Sheebalie came downstairs fully composed right now. She was far from the crying woman just maybe an hour ago."I'm leaving."she announced and I looked at her. 

"What about Alex?"I asked her.

"What is it about him?"Melissa asked and I pursed my lips. I hadn't told her the danger I was in and even though Andy knows, I had told them with my eyes not to say anything to Melissa about my problems right now.

"Ummm....he kinda have a business deal with her so that's why."I said and I looked at Sheebalie telling her to cooperate. I don't want Melissa to worry about me or her brother.

"Yeah... where is Stefan? I need to talk to him."she asked and Andy scooped a Spoon full of ice cream and ate looking down. We all looked at her questioningly. She lifted her head looking like a cat that had been caught stealing milk.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I don't know where he is."she defended.

"We have not asked anything and you are already guessing the question?"I asked and she pouted. I laughed at her childish act and walked to her.

"Stop being this adorable Andy."I said patting her shoulders gently and she smiled. I looked at Sheebalie who was looking at us with a grave expression and I wondered what the hell she was getting all sour about but whatever.

"Who's looking for me? You guys can't let me have a peaceful day meditating?"he asked.

"Let's go Mr meditator."Sheebalie said then she started walking to the door.

"Is she always this bossy?"Stefan complained and we laughed but still he left and although I don't know where the hell they are going, I was really curious, when did they became buddies? And where the hell are they going?

We ate dinner and Alex still hadn't come home. I was starting to really get worried."don't worry, Lex is maybe busy that's why he's not home right now. Just go and sleep Kim."Melissa intervened when she said she wanted to go and sleep. Andy had long gone upstairs after she had dinner.

"I will wait for a while. Just go upstairs I'll be fine."I said and she hugged me and went upstairs. I stayed there with my phone in hand just in case Alex called. His phone was going straight to voicemail and now I didn't want to call Sheebalie. So I just stayed there waiting.

Midnight reached and Alex was not home yet and I was starting to worry. My heart was racing and I got up and started racing. I took my phone and called Alex one last time and it did connect. Finally.

"Alex..."I called but then phone was disconnected. I called again but still...it didn't go through. What the hell is going on?
